However, Callor said there was nothing to prevent the city council from again proceeding in the case and passing a resolution that would stick and tear 'er down. At the board of trade meeting Monday night A. A. Mills introduced the subject of a bond issue for an additional school building on the westside. He suggested that an issue of $25,000 might be carried should it be submitted to the people. E. N. Cook, in answer to Mills stated that a proposition to erect another building in the west would meet with determined opposition from the East side, as that section was as much in need of a kindergarten school as the westside. The Santa Ana board of education passed an order eliminating German from the course of study for next year.

A soloist, Miss Suga Umezaki, a violinist, Hydeo Sabato, and pianist, Shunzo Matini, compose the trio. They entertained the high school during the afternoon.

SUBSCRIPTIONS INCREASING TO LIBERTY LOAN Anaheim Has Sold $226,000 in Bonds And Patriotic People Still Buying Although the active drive in the Liberty loan committee ended, the committeemen are still on the job and the banks are still receiving subscriptions. A list has been made of all who failed to respond to the government's appeal, and the advisory board will make calls on these people and demand their reasons for not coming to the assistance of the nation that protects them, in its hour of need. The man or woman who is financially able to buy bonds and refuses to do so will be asked to give his reasons for being a slacker. So far not a single person in Anaheim or its vicinity has absolutely refused to invest, and the committee hopes that none such will be found. Chairman McCord announced Monday that $226,000 has been subscribed to that date. This is $38,000 above our allotment, but it is hoped we will be able to duplicate the record made in the Second drive and double our quota.
